The Giving Page

Spirit Rising Foundation has a mission to share the teachings of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation as taught by Yogi Bhajan® to all, so that individuals might experience their quiet center and serve humanity. All donations are tax deductible. There are opportunities for all to support this mission. We participate in seva projects and events that help make a difference in people's lives.

The community work of Spirit Rising Foundation is based on seva, accomplished by people who are volunteering their skills, resources and time. Karma Yoga is one of the tools Yogi Bhajan taught us to move forward in our growth - selfless service - without thought of personal reward. This is ultimately the foundation of spiritual growth. Kundalini Yoga is a Raj Yoga—“It is a royal command and sovereignty of yogic virtue and values. The technique of Kundalini Yoga makes very strong, powerful yogis. The practice of Karma Yoga as a Kundalini Yogi develops grace and humility so that we can be both royal and serviceful.” (Yogi Bhajan)

Donations are another means to support this work of Spirit Rising Foundation. The Kenny Velez/Guru Kar Singh Memorial Scholarship Fund offers those who may not have the personal financial resources to attend the Teacher Training Course at Spirit Rising Yoga.
